We were sadden to read about Mr.Sparks in the paper. He was a fair man in business and a hard worker.##imported-begin##Mike & Sue Downs##imported-end##
We only got to know Mr. Sparks a few years ago when he would bring firewood to our house. He would be in the pickup bed throwing firewood down on the tailgate to us -- and it took two of us to barely keep up with him. And he always was fair and honest. The best part was getting out the lawn chairs and visiting with him over a Dr. Pepper. He was an honest, hard-working gentleman, and satisfied and happy with his life.##imported-begin##Tom & Cindy Hayes##imported-end##
Dear,
Lucille,Terry,Angie,Pam,Wayne,Roger,Kathy,Silas & Family,
We were saddened to hear about Tom's passing. I had several opportunities to visit the old neighborhood in recent years and could always drive down John St. with my family to find Tom and Lucille always at home. I can still picture in my mind Lucille holding my baby girl. Those are some special times that I hold near and dear to my heart just as I know you all have many fond memories of Tom. Please know that even though we were not able to make it in for Tom's service that we are with you in spirit and we will continue to lift you all up in prayer during this time.
Love,
The Hudgens Family,
Robert, Wendy, Grant, Pierce & Faith##imported-begin##Robert Hudgens##imported-end##
